Halloween party at Double Wide with Black Sabbath, The Strokes and Nirvana tribute acts, a drag show and a $500 cash costume contest.
Double Wide is throwing its annual Halloween party on Saturday, October 31, and this year the bill is built around three tribute acts. Smokey Mirror takes on Black Sabbath, Different Strokes does The Strokes, and Oatmeal Pizza covers Nirvana. Between the sets, there's a drag show hosted by @bleachpleasee, and DJs @mayorofsouthoakcliff and @eternostx_ keep the room moving. The whole thing is tied together with a $500 cash costume contest, so if you've been working on a costume all month, this is the night to actually wear it.
Double Wide is a retro-country bar that pairs beer and cocktails with karaoke, DJs and live music, and it's built its reputation on these Halloween parties. The night has grown every year, and the venue describes this edition as going "straight to the other side." It's the kind of spot that leans into the holiday—the tribute bands, the drag show, and the costume contest all point toward a long night rather than a quick set.
